Art Design Error (Eglantine's Motorcycle)

Postby Tilarta » Thu Nov 27, 2014 4:14 am

I'm trying to work out why this disc has an art error on it:
Image

According to the description of the item I consulted, it is Eglantine's Motorcycle from Bedknobs and Broomsticks.
As this is a live action film, I am puzzled that the disc shows an animated character (Prince John from the anthropomorphized animal version of Robin Hood).

In what universe does a cartoon animal medieval prince belong on a disc that is a World War II era motorcyle from a live action movie? :? :roll:
I'd really like to know what the art designer for this disc was thinking when they made the image.

That is King Leonidas, not Prince John. He's a big football(soccer) fan and he rules the island Eglantine visits in orde to find an amulet.

Check his picture. Very much not the character on the power disc. :)

Also Bedknobs and Broomsticks is a live action movie that includes animation, like Mary Poppins.

As others have said, he's from Bedknobs and Broomsticks, a movie that blends live action and animation, like Mary Poppins, Pete's Dragon, and Song of the South. There's no art error.

Robin Hood is sort of famously cobbled together using characters from other movies. Disney tried to cut serious costs and corners with Robin Hood's production by reusing character designs and animations from some of their other works, like Jungle Book, Aristocats and Snow White. It's a pretty easy mistake to confuse King Leonidas for Prince John because they clearly used one as the base for the other. (Yes, I know they're not identical, but John is obviously very heavily based on Leonidas)

Speaking of Bedknobs and Broomsticks, am I the only one who giggled like a school girl the first time taking the flying bed for a spin?

All I need now is an Eglantine figure and an Isle of Naboombu sky dome and I will be completely set.
